Komen, Avon Foundation for Women, United Way, and Pacific Life Foundation Setting Aside the Weapons of War Why, we might ask the prophet Zechariah today, would God want to banish chariots and horses? The answer follows: because they are used to violate God's reign of peace, along with the warrior's bow. In the days of Zechariah, chariots and horses were high-priced items used only for war-making. They were the aircraft carriers and nuclear missiles of his day. And for his culture, which thought of any king as being a military leader first and foremost, a king riding on a lowly beast of burden to proclaim peace without horses, chariots, and bows would have set his listeners topsy-turvy. This lowly, beast-riding king of peace, we believe, was fulfilled in Jesus, gentle and humble of heart. In a world torn by military strife often generated by differing religious views, and even in our own lives and homes where we are often at "war" over the tiniest things, we would do well to stop and consider to what degree we are willing to be like that "king" whose way of gentleness and humility is the way for us to find rest for our weary souls.

Treasures from our Tradition Bibliya Rasal Confirmation is complicated, at least in its history. It arose in response to real problems deeply felt, not the least of which was the desire of the bishop to minister to all who were baptized. But it also has to do with the early crisis of how to deal with persons baptized by congregations that had broken bonds with the greater church: heretics. People reasoned that no matter how wrong-headed the minister might be, Christ would always work in the waters of baptism. No matter what, God would sweep aside all human obstacles to claim the new life in the water. They were not so sure about the ability of someone who had broken with the church to confer the Spirit. By the fifth century, already-baptized persons coming into the church were anointed with chrism but not rebaptized. This anointing with myron or chrism was seen as an act of reconciliation by the church, and a seal upon the commitments vowed by the newcomer. Today, we preserve this ancient practice by never "rebaptizing" Christians who have been baptized in water in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We affirm the candidates' baptismal dignity, and we celebrate confirmation at their first reception of the Eucharist. --Rev. James Field, Copyright (c) J. S. Paluch Co.

Peace and Justice corner If you want peace, work for justice. --Pope Paul VI Girded with faith and the performance of good works, let us follow in Christ's path by the guidance of the gospel; then we shall deserve to see him who has called us into his kingdom. (rule of St. Benedict) 6 July 6, 2014 An invitation from Bishop Kevin Vann I am inviting all of you to join me at the Mass for Immigrants which is to be held at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels in Los Angeles, on Sunday, July 20, at 3 p.m. I invite all to join Archbishop Gomez and me and other Bishops in Los Angeles on July 20 to give witness to our immigration stories and to pray for the struggles of immigrants, which Archbishop Gomez calls “one of the great human rights issues of our time” and Cardinal O’Malley reminds us is, indeed a “pro-life” concern. I myself have seen personally how concern for the life of the unborn and our immigrant families often are found together in the same individuals! Pope Benedict XVI in Washington DC, and more recently Pope Francis has also spoken about the importance of the human rights and the care for immigrant peoples. May Our Lady of Guadalupe, patroness of the Americas and the Star of the New Evangelization, unite us and draw all peoples to her son Jesus. Thank you for your witness of Faith and all that you do for so many whose lives intersect ours in the Body of Christ.

Sus testigos continúan incitándonos hacia delante en esperanza y fe inquebrantable…para hacer todo en memoria de Nuestro Salvador. Mis dos cortos pero muy significativos años con la Comunidad de San Justino Mártir y la Misión del Sagrado Corazón han sido verdaderamente una bendición. Aunque la diversión ha apenas comenzado en nuestras reuniones comunes de la Eucaristia, reuniones de oración, juntas, comidas y incontables y divertidas fiestas hawaianas, mi nueva misión me lleva a pastorear a la comunidad de San Antonio de Claret en Anaheim. Al mismo tiempo me siendo entusiasmo y lleno alegría de saber que una nueva aventura me espera en mi nuevo hogar. Pero claro que hay también tristeza dentro de mí al dejarlos y decirles adiós a todos ustedes. Como vecinos, les quiero extender una invitación para que nos visitemos los unos a los otros y de colaborar en dar testimonio de nuestra Fe a todos en la ciudad de Anaheim y mas allá. Pero más que nada, de poner atención al llamado del Papa Francisco que nos llama a “Compartir la alegría del Evangelio” en este año de la familia. Porque en verdad, somos llamados a fortalecer y alimentar el lazo de la familia amada de Dios. Este fin de semana ofreceré las misas en acción de gracias por el P. Joe, los sacerdotes, diáconos, empleados y todos ustedes. Por favor de pedir por mí y para que haiga mas vocaciones para el Sacerdocio y para la vida religiosa. Más importante, mantendré el cariño y honrare todo su bondad, generosidad, paciencia y apoyo que me han brindado. ¡Siempre mantengan la fe! Andando por un pasto cerca de ustedes, P.

Es evidente que nunca se ha visto que un rey o un jefe de estado lleguen montados en un burro. Normalmente lo haría en un caballo. Pero si el caballo es símbolo de fuerza, vigor, poder, rapidez y belleza, el burro lo es de fuerza, pero es una fuerza humilde y de servicio. Se trata de saber quién va a traer la victoria a Jerusalén. Suprime el panorama de guerra y se anuncia una misión de paz para las naciones. Romanos 8:9, 11-13 Cuando Pablo utiliza las expresiones cuerpo y carne no está hablando de una parte de la persona sino de toda ella, bajo un aspecto concreto. Cuerpo y carne designan a la persona viviente. De hecho, el termino sarx (carne) se utiliza solo para la persona humana, mientras que la carne de animales se nombra con la palabra kreas. Carne y cuerpo también se refieren al universo de relaciones. Los pecados carnales, por tanto, no son solo los sexuales, sino los que dañan la buena relación con los demás. No se nos pide aquí que despreciemos lo físico, sino que no pongamos la confianza en las propias fuerzas o posibilidades humanas. Esto supone dejar actuar al Espíritu. Mateo 11:25-30 Una mujer pagana cruza los límites de cultura que la separan de Jesús para interceder por su hija. Es atrevida. Sigue al grupo dando gritos y el evangelista parece asociarla al grupo de mujeres cananeas que, en la tradición bíblica, están relacionadas con la prostitución y otras agresiones sexuales. La mujer se dirige a Jesús llamándolo Señor y le da el titulo mesiánico del futuro rey de Israel: Hijo de David. Después dice: “ten piedad de mi”, que es una frase que resuena continuamente en los salmos. La actitud de Jesús parece algo desconcertante, como que no está de acuerdo con su actitud habitual de compasión. Con la insistencia de la mujer y la concesión final del milagro, Jesús establece un principio: los no judíos tienen los mismos privilegios que los judíos, siempre y cuando tengan fe. Nuestra cultura La comunidad hispana tiene un fuerte sentido de esperanza, a pesar de los muchos conflictos y a veces la exclusión. Por eso se celebra, incluso en medio de la dificultad y el dolor.

Boletín: Someta los artículos a [email protected] Parroquia de San Justino Mártir y Misión del Sagrado Corazón Reflexiones para la homilía Últimamente la respuesta más frecuente a “¿cómo estás?” Puede ser: “cansado; demasiado ocupado”. El estar demasiado ocupados parece casi una honra. La vida moderna verdaderamente parece llevarnos a un ritmo frenético. Las grandes distancias en las ciudades, los horarios apretados, los trabajos que exigen mucha presencia y muchas horas, hacen que a veces nos sintamos muy cansados y también muy agobiados. El cansancio y el agobio a veces pueden ser incluso satisfactorios: se está haciendo el esfuerzo por una buena causa, y se está logrando. Todo eso es bueno y admirable, pero nos puede hacer pensar que vamos en un gran caballo, cabalgando llenos de gloria y de poder. Puede que estemos confiando en nuestras propias fuerzas. Pero en las lecturas de hoy se nos advierte una y otra vez que, aunque tener fuerza y vigor es bueno, no podemos perder de vista el objetivo, la razón de las acciones. Si estamos totalmente volcados hacia el exterior, las acciones, las cosas……no podremos entrar a la raíz de lo que Dios quiere de nosotros. Si toda la causa de nuestro orgullo y satisfacción en nuestros propios logros, seremos como los reyes que van a caballo: demuestran su fuerza y su poder, pero no su servicio. Para ser discípulos, seguidores de Cristo, tendremos que apoyar el poder en el servicio, en el objetivo que es vivir para los demás, para establecer unas relaciones sanas entre nosotros y con Dios. Es como ser reyes, si, pero ir en un burro: la fuerza está ahí, pero es humilde y servidora. Cuando nos sentimos “super-ocupados”, pero triunfantes, con fuerza y poder, tenemos que recordar quiénes somos y a quien le debemos la fuerza, porque en realidad, nada se debe a nuestra propia fuerza y energía, sino al poder de la gracia que nos sostiene. Cuando el cansancio nos abruma y nos tiene como aplastados, tenemos que recordar quiénes somos y a quien le debemos la fuerza. Quizá en ese momento de cansancio y agobio, nos hayamos fiado más de lo que podemos nosotros, y por eso hemos chocado con nuestra propia limitación. En todo momento, eso es lo que va a guiar nuestra vida. Esta consciencia es lo que nos hará saltar de gozo, de un gozo lleno de esperanza porque el Señor viene con su fuerza. Y al entrar—no es caballo y con armas de guerra—sino en un burro y con mensajes de paz, nos da la verdadera razón de nuestra vida, de nuestra fuerza, de nuestro trabajo y de nuestro descanso. Su yugo es suave, aunque parezca tan pesado. Su carga es ligera, porque es una gran carga de amor. Es en ese cansancio, en ese agobio, donde encontramos de verdad de dónde venimos, quienes somos y de donde viene nuestra fuerza. Estimados hermanos y hermanas en el Señor, Como continuación a estos esfuerzos y a este testimonio, les estoy invitando a todos ustedes a que se unan a mí en la Misa para Inmigrantes la cual se llevará a cabo en la Catedral de Nuestra Señora de los Ángeles en Los Ángeles, el Domingo 20 de Julio, 2014 a las 3:00 PM. Les invito a todos, a que se unan al Arzobispo Gómez y a mí y a otros Obispos en Los Ángeles el Domingo 20 de Julio para dar testimonio de nuestras historias de Inmigración y orar por la lucha de los inmigrantes, la cual el Arzobispo Gómez llama “uno de los grandes temas de los derechos humanos de nuestros tiempos” y el Cardenal O’Malley nos recuerda que es, en efecto un interés “pro-vida.” ¡Yo mismo he visto personalmente, cómo la preocupación por la vida de los aún no nacidos y de nuestras familias inmigrantes con frecuencia se encuentran juntos en los mismos individuos! El Papa Benedicto XVI en Washington DC, y más recientemente el Papa Francisco, han hablado también acerca de la importancia de los derechos humanos y del cuidado por los personas inmigrantes. Que Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe, patrona de las Américas y Estrella de la Nueva Evangelización, nos una y atraiga a todos los pueblos a su hijo Jesús. Gracias por su testimonio de Fe y por todo lo que hacen por tantas personas, cuyas vidas se cruzan con las nuestras en el Cuerpo de Cristo. Con un corazón verdaderamente agradecido en el Señor, Reverendísimo Obispo Kevin W. Vann, J.C.D., D.D.

Los católicos se unen en apoyo de los inmigrantes Unos 800 participantes con la misión de servir y defender a los inmigrantes, migrantes, refugiados y victimas de tráfico humano se reunirán en Washington, D.C. del 7 al 10 de Julio, en la Conferencia Nacional de Migraciones. La Conferencia ha sido convocada por el Comité de Migraciones y Refugiados de la Conferencia de Obispos Católicos de Estados Unidos, la Red Legal de Inmigración y Caridades Católicas USA. El evento está abierto a toda persona interesada en entender mejor y comprometerse con la misión de la Iglesia de servir a esta población. El objetivo de la Conferencia Nacional de Migración es construir la capacidad de la Iglesia católica y de la sociedad para promover la vida y la dignidad de la persona humana compartiendo y aplicando la Doctrina Social católica a la migración. La conferencia gozara de la presencia de oradores de renombre que trataran una amplia gama de temas relacionados con la migración, incluyendo una discusión de servicios y el cuidado pastoral de inmigrantes, oportunidades de colaboración y liturgias especiales. En Enero, durante la Semana Nacional de Migraciones, los obispos de Estados Unidos dijeron: “Como Iglesia, tenemos la llamada a llevar la luz de Cristo a estas poblaciones, a vencer las tinieblas y a ayudar a sacarlos de los márgenes de la sociedad y traerlos a su centro. Hacer esto proveerá a los migrantes más vulnerables un espacio protegido donde puedan florecer como seres humanos”.
